A community workshop repaired damaged appliances instead of immediately replacing them. At first, its volunteers recorded only how many objects they repaired. Although that number rose each month, it did not show whether the repaired objects remained useful. An appliance returned to the workshop the following week counted as another repair, even if the first repair had failed. To obtain a more meaningful measure, the team began contacting owners three months after each visit. The records of these follow-up calls ① reveal how many appliances are still working. A repair that is completed quickly may appear successful, but its value depends partly on ② whether the object continues to serve its owner. By comparing repeated faults, volunteers can identify components ③ that need a different treatment. The additional information helps them avoid ④ to repeat an ineffective procedure. It also reminds them that the number of tasks completed is not necessarily the same as the number of problems ⑤ solved. * appliance: 가전제품 / component: 부품

A city's water department wanted residents to understand their consumption. A monthly bill gave a total, but the figure arrived too late to help them notice which daily activities used the most water. The department therefore tested a display that updated during the day. This made the connection between an action and its consequence more (A) [visible / accidental]. The display alone did not guarantee a reduction. A household already using very little water had fewer unnecessary uses to remove than one with a leaking pipe. Advice was therefore most useful when it was (B) [identical / responsive] to the household's circumstances. The purpose was not to reward the smallest total regardless of family size, but to help each household identify avoidable waste. Comparing totals without considering those differences could produce a (C) [misleading / precise] judgment of how responsibly people were using water.

An urban planner studied why a newly built public square remained almost empty at midday. The space looked attractive in photographs and provided plenty of seating. Nevertheless, the planner did not assume that residents disliked meeting outdoors. She visited at different hours and discovered that the seats were exposed to direct sunlight for most of the afternoon. Her report described the photographs as offering [an incomplete picture] of how the square functioned. They showed its appearance but omitted the heat visitors experienced while sitting there. The phrase was not a criticism of the camera's sharpness or a claim that the square had no advantages. Rather, it warned against evaluating a place from information that left out a condition essential to its use. When temporary shade was added, the team monitored whether more visitors stayed, instead of treating a more attractive photograph as proof of success.

A manager introduced a suggestion box to learn why employees found a new process difficult. At first, few people used it. She realized that a box alone did not make staff feel ① secure about reporting problems. They also needed to know that criticism would not be treated as disloyalty. The manager began discussing mistakes in her own decisions and explaining how colleagues' comments had ② improved the process. She removed names from the suggestions before sharing them and focused on the issue rather than the person who raised it. Over time, this helped ③ reduce the perceived cost of speaking up. The number of comments increased, although that increase did not necessarily mean the process itself had become worse. It could instead indicate that problems previously kept ④ visible were finally being reported. The manager therefore examined the content of the comments rather than using their number alone as an ⑤ indicator of failure.
